Now that I have the perfect bathing suit...Tip #126
here's how to keep it looking new.
If you've been in the ocean, soak your suit in cold water for 15 minutes before washing in a gentle cycle or by hand.
Never put your suit in the dryer. Instead roll it in a towel to soak up extra water--wringing it out can stretch and pull--then, let air dry in the sun.Be sure to throw your suits in the washer one last time when the season ends, to make sure there is no lingering chlorine or salt water in the fabric.Happy swimming!

Excellent advice -- I've ruined a ton in that crazy machine they used to have in the locker rooms, that spun the heck out of the suit.
CRAP! I always dry mine in the dryer when I get home from moms. They have a salt water pool and I have to say it's waaaay better than a chlorine pool!
Is that a pic of your pool?
great tip

Excellent tip. There's nothing worse than an ocean-crusted bathing suit! Or when the salt discolors it... blech. The whole soaking-it-in-cold-water thing? Genius.
